HOW COUNSELING

CAN HELP

WHAT IS COUNSELING?

We can get the most out of our time together if you understand how counseling works, and what the process of practice entails. 

​

  • Building a relationship

  • Understanding your situation – Surveying the darkness

  • Setting goals – Finding light at the end of the tunnel

  • Doing the work – Walking step by step into the light

  • Weighing the risks – It’s still dark in here

  • Celebrating – Enjoying the light

IS COUNSELING FOR ME?

People like you and me go to counseling every day for hundreds of different reasons, many of which are not because of a crisis.Think of counseling like going to the doctor. Most of us attend doctors regularly for everything from getting a physical, treating a cold or the flu, or even treating a broken arm in the ER. Some of these trips are preventative and some of them are urgent.

​

Your mental, emotional, and spiritual health work the same way. There are degrees of need and degrees of care. Some people enter counseling through a crisis and others come in to prevent one. So wherever you are, counseling can benefit you.
